Operating Limits:
The inverter will operate most AC appliances within its power rating.
When operating microwaves, please note that the power commonly advertised for microwave
ovens is the cooking power (the power delivered to the food) not the power actually used by
the microwave oven. Microwave ovens generally will consume 40% to 100% more than the
advertised cooking power. Check the rating sticker at the rear or under the oven to determine its
actual power draw.
In some cases the power inverter may not be able to start some electric motors even though the
rated current draw is within the limits of the inverter. If a motor will not start, check the voltage
reading of the battery voltage indicator. If the voltage indicator reads below 11.0 volts (19V on
24V models, this could be the reason for not starting. Check that the wire connections are good
and that the battery is fully charged. If these are ok and you get the same, then this is indicative
that the inverter is too small for the application.
Safety Instructions
Explosive Gas Precautions:
This equipment contains components that can produce arcs or sparks. To prevent fire or explosion
do not install in compartments containing batteries or flammable materials, or in locations
that require ignition-protected equipment. This includes any space containing petrol-powered
machinery, fuel tanks, joints or other connections between components of the fuel system.
Precautions When Working With Batteries:
• If battery acid contacts skin or clothing, wash immediately with soap and water. If acid gets into
eyes, immediately flood eyes with running cold water for at least 20 minutes and get medical
attention immediately. NEVER smoke, allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of batteries or engine.
Do not drop a metal tool on the battery as the resulting spark or short-circuit of the battery may
cause an explosion.
• Remove personal metal items such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and watches when working
with a lead-acid battery. A lead-acid battery produces a short circuit current, high enough to weld a
ring or similar metal, causing a severe burn.
